A 'Bat' Day.

JULY 20, 2012. THE BATMAN SHOOTING.

Aurora Theatre, where the tragedy happened.
First of all, all the best to all the victims' families. It's going to be a hard time for them, hope you guys will feel better soon.

Well, I guess most of us have already heard of the shooting incident in Aurora theatre in Colorado right? I don't want to talk about the evil guy who took 12 lives, I want to talk about the 12 lost lives.

The Youngest
Veronica Moser-Sullivan. 12. Female.

The Oldest
Gordon Cowden. 51. Male.

Alex Sullivan. "He was a very, very good young man. He always had a smile, always made you laugh. He had a little bit of comic in him. Witty, smart. He was loving, had a big heart." says Joe Loewenguth, Sullivan's uncle.

Alexander C. Teves. 24.

Alexander J. Boik. "He was loved by all that knew him and was dating a beautiful young lady who was with him at the theater and survived. We want to try and focus on the beautiful lives that were ended and not the evil that is responsible." says Boik's family.

Jessica Ghawi (aka Jessica Redfield) 
24. "I was shown how fragile life was on Saturday. I saw the terror on bystanders' faces. I saw the victims of a senseless crime. I saw lives change. I was reminded that we don't know when or where our time on Earth will end. When or where we will breathe our last breath."

John Larimer (Navy cryptologist) "Losing a sailor, whether it's in combat or whether it's in a horrific domestic situation like this, it's hard. It's tough. Losing Larimer felt like losing one of my sons." says Navy Cmdr. Jeffrey Jakuboski. 

Jonathan Blunk (Navy 2004-2009) 26. "Pretty much every weapon the guy in the theater used he owned. If you asked if he was still alive, he would have said his only regret is he didn't have his sidearm with him and he couldn't do anything to stop him." says Blunk's friend, Gill.

Matthew McQuinn. (Died after diving in front of his girlfriend and her older brother to shield them from gunfire.)

Micayla Medek. 23. "You can't go that long without knowing. I hope this evil act ... doesn't shake people's faith in God." says her father's cousin, Anita Busch.

Rebecca Ann Wingo. 32. "I didn't really know her well but she had a really bubbly personality. She was a pretty happy person. She just never really seemed ... like with work, she never got irritated. She was pretty happy to be here."

Sgt. Jesse Childress (Air Force reservist) 29. "He was always our star." says Air Force Capt. Andrew Williams.

This shooting massacre is probably one of the most horrifying incident in history after the Tucson shooting. My heart goes out to all of those who were involved in the incident. According to reports, there are at least 50 people who are injured. This incident has taken 12 lives. These 12 people deserves to be remembered, instead of the evil one.

Here's a tribute to the victims. May you rest in peace.
